StretchIntensityCommand Class

Summary

Increases the contrast in an image by centering, maximizing, and proportioning the range of intensity values.

Syntax
C#
VB
Objective-C
C++
Java
public class StretchIntensityCommand : RasterCommand 
Public Class StretchIntensityCommand  
   Inherits RasterCommand 
@interface LTStretchIntensityCommand : LTRasterCommand 
public class StretchIntensityCommand extends RasterCommand 
public ref class StretchIntensityCommand : public RasterCommand   

Remarks
  • Unlike the ChangeContrastCommand command, this command always retains the original number of different intensity values. (Ordinary contrast adjustments can lose values at the high and low ends of the scale.)
  • This command supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.
  • This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

If the image has a LUT and you want to work on the image data, set RasterImage.UseLookupTable to false. Then, after calling the method, reset the UselookupTable property to true, as follows:

rasterImage.UseLookupTable = false; 
Method(rasterImage); 
rasterImage.UseLookupTable = true; 

For more information, refer to Changing Brightness and Contrast.

Example

Run the StretchIntensityCommand on an image and maximize its range of intensity values.
